All TAs for Physics hold office hours in the PSR, Broida Hall, Room 1019, located on the first floor behind the elevator. The PSR is open from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday when classes are in session. During the summer, the PSR hours are reduced. There should be a TA in the PSR at all times, and any TA should be able to help you with problems in any Physics class.

The PSR Fellows are not employed over the summer. The PSR will be closed on university holidays which can be found here.

At the beginning of each quarter, the PSR will open on the 3rd day of classes. This can be subject to change. The PSR is closed during finals week.

The lower division PSR is intended for the use of students in the courses ASTRO 1, PHYS 2, PHYS 3L, PHYS 6AL, and PHYS 6CL while the upper division PSR is intended for the use of students in the major series of courses (20, 23, 102, 103, 110A, 115A, 119A,120, 123A and 134L). If you cannot make it to the hours that match the courses you are enrolled in, you can attend the other set of PSR hours. However, please note that students from the designated courses will be given priority during that time.

Physics Circus
The Physics Department has sponsored this exciting K-12 outreach program since 1998. The Circus takes CSC equipment on the road to local schools for an action-packed learning experience led by enthusiastic Physics Department graduate students, undergraduate students, and faculty.» http://www.physics.ucsb.edu/~circus/

CSEP Science Center
The CSC has been a valuable outreach asset at UCSB for over 25 years. The CSC contains a host of hands-on science equipment, allowing students to learn about a variety of topics in an interactive way. For example, there is equipment for student use that demonstrates conservation of momentum, flow of fluids, or principles of electricity.» http://csep.cnsi.ucsb.edu/k12/csc/
